Non-EU married to British citizen,in UK,EEA2 app help needed

Post by nat & owa » Mon Apr 29, 2013 6:38 pm

Hi all

Hoping someone can give a little advice regarding my husbands EEA2 Residence Card app.
We are now both in the UK, he entered with me 2 months ago on Code 1A (6 months no restrictions permit), as we previously lived in Spain and I exercised treaty rights there (dealt with as Surinder Singh case).

Now we are starting to make his EEA2 app. Im confused at to which Sections we need to fill out with what information...

Section 5 of course (Surinder Singh cases)
But then we are advised to go to Section 6 (your EEA National Family Member). Here the questions regard specfic employment details, Do we fill this is with my PREVIOUS employment details from Spain, or the employment that I now have in the UK?? The questions are asked in the present, but of course we´ve already left Spain and we´re now both working here in the UK.

Advice needed before we continue.

Many Thanks, Natalia

For Surinder Singh, it's the employment in Spain and not the UK they are after in section 6.

Ok, Thanks for that.

So, they wont care about the fact that we´re now both employed in the UK? Should I include these documents anyway for additional application support?

I keep reading that this Residence App isnt ´obligatory´, that is just something that [i]confirms[/i] the right of residence. What does that mean? For example, once my husbands Code 1A 6 months permit runs out...what right does he have to BE here and to WORK here?....what rights does he have without the EEA2?

We´l make the app regardless, but im very curious about that.

Thanks again.

What you do now in the UK is irrelevant to the immigration status of your partner. Only the employment (and residence) in Spain matters.

The residence rights are not affected by having or not having a valid or an expired document. Proving the rights without a document to an employer or airline, well that's a different story...
